Sprint announced the HTC Evo 4G today. I gotta say, I'm impressed. I'm particularly excited because, as everyone knows, I'm a fanboy of Android. And this lovely piece of equipment features Android OS 2.1. I'm stuck with the MyTouch 3g and the lowly 1.6 version of Android. I really wish that they would upgrade the operating system on units that are already owned by consumers.
So, back to the Evo, I'm drooling over this thing. It has a 4.3 inch display. One other thing that it has that my phone lacks is a a 3.5mm headset jack. I'm not sure why the hell they left that out when designing the MyTouch. Other features include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, 1GB of internal memory, Assisted-GPS with Sprint Navigation, seven home screens, a personal organizer, a microSD card slot that accommodates cards up to 32GB, a 1GHz Snapdragon processor, an HDMI out port. A 1GB processor on a cell phone is freaking insanely fast too, and the HDMI port? Watch videos from your cellphone on your big screen tv lately? Sounds awesome.
I believe that Sprint is going to be the first carrier to offer 4G, which will be this summer. I'm looking forward to it's release, because I think it'll be the most successful Android phone released, so it'll be interesting to see how it fares.
